March is National Criminal Justice Month, and NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) has developed a campaign to raise awareness of the mental health issues faced by people in the criminal justice system. The Overlooked campaign illuminates the ripple effect of the criminal justice system on people with mental illness, their families, and the general public through a sharing of personal stories. If you're open to taking a peek at “the people behind the statistics," it might shift your perspective about how we, as a society, treat each other.
